Academic researchers often treat sound recording less as a current practice and more as a part of the history of film and cinema--for example, in the use of Edison's Kinetophone in 1895 in The Dickson Experimental Sound Film and the far-afield electroacoustic practices that famously created the "ancient music of the Krell" for the 1965 film Forbidden Planet.

Historians of film sound can trace audience reactions to the failed try-out of Edison's Kinetophone in 1913, an early effort to mechanically synchronise sound to image that ironically received many rave reviews from managers.

Bringing the Chronophone to the US quickly led to antagonism with Thomas Edison, who was promoting his inferior Kinetophone system, and the ensuing court battles meant that the Flushing studio languished.
